London, 1892. Thomas Pitt’s testimony sends distinguished soldier John Adinett to the gallows for murdering a friend, but instead of receiving praise Pitt is removed from command and transferred to Whitechapel. Ordered to investigate alleged anarchist activity undercover, he enters a district still shadowed by the unsolved Ripper murders.

Charlotte and Gracie help him examine why powerful men wanted Adinett convicted and why Pitt’s career had to be broken. The inquiry reveals a conspiracy that uses fear of political violence to protect reputations and influence the future of the British state.
